Very busy with lots of projects/interests I haven't had time for until now! I also do the social media for travelersunited.org and do occasional travel writing.

Writing about the various ways that Carlson Software users utilize the software to improve their business and/or their projects.

I'm a member of Eastern Snowsports Writers Association (ESWA) and North American Snowsports Journalists Association (NASJA) and a former board of directors member of ESWA. I concentrate on ski/snowboard destination and general travel writing.

Responsibilities include: • Advertising. Develop marketing plan/budget for the four areas of concentration for Carlson Software – land surveying, civil engineering, construction and mining – and to execute the plan. • Publications. Produce all collateral materials, including brochures, flyers, folders, posters, and banners. This includes developing the concept as well as doing the copywriting, gathering all the photos/screen shots to be used, overseeing design, proofreading, and working with the printer.• Communications. Oversee all the web content, providing updates to home page and all other aspects of the site on a regular basis; write emails/newsletters to communicate with customers, dealers and staff.• Public Relations. Research, write, and distribute timely press releases including new product releases, customer/user stories, new personnel, and new partnerships.

Developed, coordinated and executed strategic communications plans to increase media coverage of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute/The Jimmy Fund’s fund-raising efforts. Conveyed key messages to the general public in addition to present and potential sponsors, donors, trustees, medical personnel and patients.

I was either on staff or a contributing writer/photographer throughout this period. The Mountain Ear was a weekly lifestyle newspaper covering the unique people and happenings in the Mt. Washington Valley. Its stories tended more toward feature articles rather than news. I was privileged to work with a dedicated crew and also to interview and write about many of the ski pioneers, the innovators or just local characters who shaped the community. Stories from 30 years of the Ear are being posted at www.mtearchronicles.com.

In charge of all marketing and PR activities.
